Love is not about girl and boy
It's not about boy and boy or girl and girl
Love is not about gender or whether a person can shove something inside of you and call it love
Love is a four letter word more complex than the atoms and protons that make up the
universe
It's about compassion and the understanding that just because you don't understand it, doesn't mean it's wrong
Love is playing hide and seek at the age of 21
Not caring if people find it stupid
It is the deep rooted sorrow in the eyes of someone who has lost their beloved
Love is holding onto someone's hand afraid to let them go
It is the changing of seasons
The leaves dancing with the wind and the wind tugging at your hair
Love is sharing moments with people you didn't even know existed
It is the unconditional sacrifice of parents
And the willingness of children to grow up and reciprocate the nurture
Yeah
Love is laying in bed aching because there is no one beside you
It is the realization that life is better spent with companions
Growing up is one step closer to the realization of what life really is
And although we may never really know
At least we have spent it
With a little bit of love
